About the Royal School for the Blind Charity

The Royal School for the Blind Charity Liverpool is a charity that runs both a School for young people aged 2-19 years old and an adult day service for young adults over the age of 19 with vision impairment, sensory, or additional needs. Although our funding comes from a variety of sources, we are starting to fundraise to support our income and make our work more sustainable for the future. Income generated will support the development of our pupils and young adults, prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life and encourage their independence, communication and mobility. 

Why this role matters

We have ambitious plans for the future including building a new Centre to provide opportunities for therapies and independent growth for young people, and we know that developing sustainable voluntary income will be critical to achieving them. That's why we're investing in fundraising and creating this new role. As our first Development Manager, you'll have the opportunity to build our fundraising approach from the ground up, developing new relationships with individuals, businesses, communities and charitable funders and helping us tell the story of our work to new audiences.

Role Overview and Application Process

Job Title: Charity Development Manager

Hours: Full Time (37 hours per week)

Location: This role can be either office-based at the Royal School for the Blind Charity, or hybrid. 

Responsible to: Charity Leadership Group and managed by Head of Central Services

Pay Scale: £35k - £40k, depending on experience (NJC 26-30)

Term: Two-year fixed term in the first instance, with the ambition to establish fundraising as a sustainable long-term function within the charity.

This is a rare opportunity to build and shape a new fundraising operation from the ground up, playing a pivotal role in the long-term growth and sustainability of the Royal School for the Blind Charity. As the function develops, there will be scope to expand its reach and impact, offering excellent potential for career progression.

The Charity Development Manager will lead efforts to secure vital income that underpins the charity’s vision and purpose, driving support through donor engagement, targeted campaigns, and strategic fundraising initiatives. Our long-term ambition is to build a diversified fundraising programme capable of generating approximately £400,000 annually. This role will be instrumental in developing and delivering a growing, high-performing fundraising portfolio.

We are looking for an experienced fundraising professional who can design and deliver a robust, evidence-based fundraising strategy. This will involve gaining a deep understanding of the charity’s mission, stakeholders, and audiences, as well as the broader funding landscape, creating a diversified and effective approach that maximizes income and long-term sustainability. This is an exciting time for the Charity as we become much more outward-looking. Alongside our existing work, we have begun a capital building project to enhance our resources. When completed, the new Rushton Centre will house facilities which are open to the public, including a hydrotherapy pool and a café. At the heart of this is a wish to make the Royal School for the Blind Charity part of the fabric of the City.

In this new post we are looking for someone who can help open up our work to the wider public: the role is well suited to an experienced fundraiser looking for autonomy and the opportunity to help shape the next chapter in the charity’s history.

Although this is a new standalone fundraising role, you won't be building the function in isolation. The post sits within a well-established and supportive team and will be strategically led by the Charity Leadership group and Board of Trustees. In addition, you will have access to colleagues across our services to help bring our impact to life, and support to develop campaigns and engage new audiences. Alongside this, the Charity is currently fundraising for a capital project for a significant new building to resource our activities and reach out into the wider community. Whilst this is a separate project, in the future there will be exciting opportunities to link the new building into the core fundraising strategy.

For full roles and responsibilities please see the application pack.

Applications close: 9am on Wednesday 21st October

Interviews: Wednesday 4th November

Battersea is in an exciting phase of innovation and transformation as we embark on the second year of our five-year strategy. With increased investment in income generation, which started in 2025, we continue to expand our team to drive the growth necessary to achieve our organisational goals. Our fundraising team bridges the journey of the animals in our care with the wider public, demonstrating how their contributions enable us to support every dog and cat. We now have several new roles within this team to further our mission.

Legacy and In-Memory income is vital for Battersea and gifts left to us in Wills account for over 40% of our total income. We’ve seen significant growth in this area thanks to the sector-leading work of our ambitious team and the success of our wider fundraising programme. It’s therefore an exciting time to join the Legacy and In-Memory fundraising team.

The Legacy and In Memory Stewardship Officer will help to support and deliver our Legacy and In Memory stewardship programme, working closely with the Senior Stewardship Officer to ensure the smooth and effective management of day-to-day activity, reporting, and stewardship campaigns.

What we can offer you:

In return for your commitment to our cause and to recognise the value of our employees, Battersea offers a range of benefits to support the wellbeing of our employees. These include:

• 28 days of annual leave (plus 8 days paid public holidays) per year.
• Discounted gym memberships and cycle to work schemes.

We understand the value of diverse voices, perspectives, and experiences to help us deliver even more for our dogs and cats, and we welcome applicants from all sections of the community.

Join us and help us be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need us.

Acceptable use of AI:

At Battersea, we value expertise. We recognise each candidate that applies to us will have a range of expertise they can offer us, so we want to hear about this in your own words. We understand the support that generative artificial intelligence (AI) software can offer but it can also lead to numerous applications presenting as generic and impersonal. This makes it difficult to gain understanding of your unique experience.

To best showcase yourself, we encourage you to write your responses without the assistance of AI. If you require the use of AI software to aid in completing your application, we ask you use the generative responses as a prompt for writing your answers and avoid copying and pasting. You must also ensure the information presented in your application accurately reflects your experience.

Join a small charity where your ideas and fundraising work can make a visible difference.

We are looking for a Fundraising Officer with strong fundraising fundamentals, curiosity, creativity and a willingness to experiment. At a time when the charity sector and the wider world are changing quickly, we want someone who can look beyond familiar approaches, spot opportunities others might miss and turn new ideas into practical action.

ABOUT DISABILITY AFRICA

Disability Africa works in partnership with locally led organisations in The Gambia, Kenya, Uganda, Zambia and Eswatini. Together, we create opportunities for disabled children and young people to participate in community life on an equal basis, while working to change attitudes and challenge the exclusion they face.

At the heart of this work are community-based play hubs, led by our partners, where disabled children and young people play alongside their peers, build relationships and become more connected to their communities.

Our work is grounded in the Social Model of Disability. We focus on removing the social and attitudinal barriers that exclude disabled children and young people, and we reject pity-based approaches to fundraising and communication.

We are also conscious of the colonial power structures that continue to shape the international development sector. We work actively to challenge them by building long-term partnerships in which local organisations lead how our approach is shaped and put into practice in their own communities.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You will help generate the income that sustains and develops our work, joining a small, collaborative team and working closely with the Executive Director, colleagues and volunteers. The role offers considerable variety and the opportunity to develop your fundraising experience across several income streams.

You will research opportunities, prepare strong funding applications and donor reports, maintain our fundraising pipeline and CRM, and help build relationships with funders and supporters. You will also contribute to campaigns and help us explore new audiences and fundraising approaches.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Research funding opportunities across trusts and foundations, corporate partnerships, individual giving and other relevant sources.

• Prepare and submit clear, persuasive applications, proposals and funding requests.

• Maintain an accurate pipeline of prospective and existing funders and manage timely follow-up and repeat applications.

• Build positive relationships with donors, funders, corporate partners and prospective supporters.

• Produce clear donor reports that demonstrate impact and financial accountability.

• Maintain accurate information in our fundraising CRM and use data to help inform priorities.

• Contribute to fundraising campaigns, donor communications and materials in collaboration with colleagues and volunteers.

• Support the development and testing of new fundraising opportunities and approaches.

ABOUT YOU

You do not need to have worked across every area listed above. We are looking for someone with a sound grounding in fundraising, strong writing and research skills, and the confidence to develop relationships with different people and organisations.

• Experience of fundraising in a charity, non-profit or comparable organisation.

• Strong research, writing and proposal-development skills.

• The confidence to approach and build relationships with donors and prospective supporters.

• Good analytical and numerical skills, with confidence working with data and budgets.

• Experience using a CRM or donor database (we use Salesforce).

• Strong organisation and attention to detail, with the ability to manage several priorities.

• Curiosity, initiative and a willingness to test new ideas.

• Alignment with Disability Africa’s ethos and the Social Model of Disability, including our partnership-based approach, an awareness of the colonial dynamics that continue to shape the sector, and a rejection of pity-based charity narratives.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A four-day working week, with 28 hours worked from Monday to Thursday.

• A 12-month fixed-term contract, with the possibility of extension.

• Hybrid working, with two days per week in our Staines office, a three-minute walk from Staines station and less than 30 minutes by train from central London.

• Twenty working days of annual leave, equivalent to five full working weeks, plus the Christmas closure period.

• The opportunity to shape and develop fundraising work within a small organisation.

• A collaborative working environment with close contact across our UK team and African partners.

HOW TO APPLY

Please submit your CV and a supporting statement of no more than 750 words through CharityJob. Your statement should explain why you are interested in the role, what you believe you would bring to it, and, through relevant examples, how your experience meets the person specification.

Applications close at 11.59 pm on Monday 19 October 2026. First interviews are expected to take place on 26 or 27 October, with second interviews during the week beginning 2 November.

WHO WE ENCOURAGE TO APPLY

We want to hear from people who are excited by this role and share our values, including people who are often excluded from opportunities in the charity sector. We especially encourage applications from disabled people and from people with personal or professional connections to the countries where our partners work.

If there is anything we can change in the recruitment process to make it more accessible to you, please let us know.

We are sorry that we cannot offer visa sponsorship for this role: the terms of the role do not meet the current sponsorship requirements. Applicants will therefore need to already have the right to work in the UK.

You’ll bring:

• Proven ability to learn new systems quickly and develop advanced knowledge
• Strong data manipulation skills using Excel, Access or comparable tools

• Experience managing several stakeholders and competing requirements
• The ability to draw out requirements and translate them into practical improvements

• Experience using ImportOmatic or a similar data import tool
• Experience designing and delivering systems training
• Experience creating user guidance or process documentation
